When you set a list's visibility to Unlisted, only people who have the link can see it. It doesn't appear in latest lists or on your profile. Use it when you want to show a list only to friends or a small group.
Visibility options
| Visibility | Who can see it | Latest lists and profile |
|---|---|---|
| Private | Only you (the creator) | Not shown |
| Unlisted | People who have the URL | Not shown |
| Public | Anyone | Shown |
People who get the link to an Unlisted list can see it without logging in.
Make a list Unlisted
When you create it
- On the Create list screen, enter a title.
- Under Visibility, choose Unlisted.
- Select Create list.
After you create it
- On your list, select Edit.
- Under List info, choose Unlisted for Visibility.
- Select Save changes.
Send the link
- On your list, select Copy link.
- Paste the copied link into a messaging app or anywhere else and send it.
If Copy link doesn't work, press and hold the List URL shown on the screen (Ctrl+C on a computer) to copy it.
Things to keep in mind
- People who get the link can send it to others. If there's someone you don't want to see it, make the list Private.
- You can change the visibility anytime. If you change it from Unlisted to Private, people who have the link can no longer see it.
- If you don't need the list anymore, you can delete it with Delete list on the Edit screen. Deleting can't be undone, and all clips in the list are deleted too.
